Posted in Weather on November 20, 2008 | Leave a Comment »

Why do people lose their minds during the very first snowfall? My god, we only got 4cm and there were over 400 accidents on city roads!
The plus side is that it is very pretty and starts to put us in the right mood for the season! Put on a fire and pull out that Barolo [...]

Every year, I have mixed feelings about fall; I love the fall colours, I get excited about winter coming, but get really sad about having to put socks and shoes on! It all boils down to claustrophobic feet! There I said it.

We were out last night at 9:30pm shoveling…for the third time that day! As you can well imagine we are quite sick of it. Good thing we did a workout too, otherwise, I’d fear that we’d plummet into unfitedness (is that a word?)

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Sunday, December 16 – what a storm! 36 cm of snow. WOW! We shoveled 2 times to try to keep up with it! (fortunately, our neighbour Frank, just bought a snow blower and he cleared up the majority by the time we returned in the afternoon!).

It was beautiful! The driving was a little sketchy but [...]
